On the Canon roadshow I had the camera for 5 minutes in hand, and since it had happened ... :-)
My main areas of application are music concerts of all genres, both indoors and outdoors. The Canon 5D Mark-3 here offers some new opportunities.
Has to take pictures + with 16,000 ISO and in the photos then search where the noise is really what for themselves. A madman ISO circumference, resulting in extreme exposure times - really great!
+ The Silent Mode ... like not everyone need. But who wants to shoot a little quieter in a classical concert, church, meetings, etc., which will have thereto his delight. Klaro a few frames / second less - but this one takes it like in buying!
+ Autofocus, just gorgeous. With the many assignable measurement fields and selectable measuring methods a truly auspicious imaging machine.
+ The Habtik, handling even better than the 5D MK-2, is not quite to the 1 Series ran - but verabeitet completely sufficient and also really great.
+ The new arrangement of some controls allows for the settling an almost blind act on the camera without really to look.
+++ Summary: The success of the series 5 Series model is continued, a camera for eternity (according to the current position ... who knows what Canon in 3-4 years from now everything rausbringt :-) and a wonderful working machine. Have regretted the change from the 1Ds Mark-2 and 5D Mark 2 on the new 5D Mark-3 at any time!
